Don't bring up texas, explain SK. So, why China ( and the Chiense ) are different than the Koreans ?
LOLOLO WHYYYY don't bring up Texas? you brought up everybody including the Romans to try to give examples of why China's economy will fail and now we have to focus on Korea?? I don't need to explain anything to you. China is different from Korea because it's not Korea. America is different from Korea because it's not Korea. Russia is different from Korea because it's not Korea. Countries aren't versions of each other; they're different completely. This is not the South Korean economy thread; if you want to discuss SK, open a thread and see if anyone wants to talk to you.
I really don't know what "magic of average" means; that's not English. But you call it magic again? You don't understand Chinese economics so you called it magic and not you don't understand English so that's magic too? LOL World must be a magical place to you! haha
My quotes are very clear to everyone who speaks English; I don't know how to make them simpler for you. Your level, in knowledge and in English, are both just too low for this discussion. I can give you the reading materials again but I'm not your father so ultimately it's not my prerogative to explain it to you in hundreds of different ways until something finally clicks in your "brain."
Reading Materials (Again):
"China is selling fewer cheap conventional cars and more expensive high-tech cars. That does not point to declining ability to afford things. If it was like Europe and we start seeing Chinese people buy more small cheap cars, maybe we can conclude that.
Trucks took the biggest hit, yes. For many reasons:
1. China's economy is shifting away from producing tons of cheap goods to streamlined high tech goods. That's reduced shipping volume.
2. China's economy is shifting towards the services sector, to further reduce the shipping requirement.
3. China's high speed rails have left many older trains that take 16 hours to go from Shanghai to Nanjing without passengers so they have become cargo trains. Although trucks still have to load and unload them from their origin and destination, that means these trucks are driving 15 miles instead of 500 miles. That increased their longevity significantly."
"The world right now is shifting from conventional vehicles to EV and/or hybrid energy vehicles. It is still a relatively new concept and these cars are improving rapidly compared to conventionally-fueled vehicles, which are very mature technology. What happens right before the new iphone or Samsung or Huawei comes out? Sales of the current models drop off in anticipation for improvement. This drop in sales can in no way be interpreted as under-performance or economic disaster for the company.
Car sales are basically declining in every major economy around the world now. I believe another factor is that with the maturation of traditionally-fueled vehicle technology, the cars of today are lasting longer than the cars of the past and that is causing the replacement rate to drop."
The number of sold pork is fact, the "getting healthier" is a lame and low probability explanation.
Then why did you quote that article?? That is an article that YOU cited as your evidence and when I told you what it said (right in the title), you called it lame. You just can't stop slapping yourself in the face, can you?
And it doesn't matter what you think is a "lame explanation" because that's a fact and it's also a government initiative. You think everyone who eats salad and seafood is because they're too poor to eat pork? Your explanation is the stupidest one of all. It's not just unlikely; it's not possible.
Why is pork so important to you? Do you have a pork fetish or something? How about beef and seafood? Don't like those? They don't count as food? LOL
No one argue about that 2017 WAS the best year of Chinese consumer.
Compared to all the years before 2017, nobody argues. Compared to 2018, I argue. Until 2018 data comes out, this will have to do:
"As the world anticipates when the supercharged shopping day will hit a ceiling, sales are already cooling. The final total of 2018 represents a 27 percent increase from last year. That’s the lowest Alibaba has seen in the history of Singles’ Day sales, and a drop from 36 percent in 2017 — still, it remains impressive given how large the target is each year."
